The guy who called Jack Smith a "deranged animal" today has gone on social media 184 times to publicly called Jack Smith "deranged".

Jack Smith has gone on social media ZERO times to insult or comment on Donald Trump.

Who sounds "deranged" to you?

BREAKING: Super powerful words from Jack Smith just now:

"The investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in criminal activity… No one should be above the law in this country and the law required he be held to account.”

Poor Zelensky. The US has abandoned him.
Zelensky urges Europe to build military bases on Greenland and show it can defend the island from Russian ships. He says Ukraine has the expertise to sink Russian vessels — and could do so near Greenland if it were a NATO member.

Did the ice agent kill Ms. Good because he feared her? Or did he kill her because she didn’t fear him?

"Der von RFK Jr. ernannte Kirk Milhoan hat soeben ganz klar und deutlich erklärt, dass er an der Bevölkerung der Vereinigten Staaten experimentieren möchte, indem er beobachtet, was passiert, wenn die Impfquote sinkt und sich Infektionskrankheiten ausbreiten."
RFK Jr. appointee Kirk Milhoan has just clearly stated, out loud, that he wants to experiment on the people of the United States by seeing what happens as vaccination coverage plummets and infectious diseases spread.

Ist eigentlich echt witzig, dass ausgerechnet die #Nationalsozialisten, die immer Vaterlandsliebe und Patriotismus predigen, die Ersten sind, die unser Land an den nächsten, faschistischen Feind verraten wollen.

Wer ist soooo dumm, diese Lügner zu wählen?!
Immer, wenn aus dem Ausland jemand Macht auf uns in Deutschland ausüben will, ist die AfD zur Stelle und macht es ihm möglichst einfach. Durch Spaltung und Lügen, und auch indem man die Propaganda einfach 1:1 übernimmt.

I always appreciated them, but this was the song that made me a fan. Their Beat Club appearance is another one for the ages.

Ossoff: "POTUS called for this man [Mark Kelly] to be hanged. A combat veteran, naval aviator, astronaut, senator. He demanded his execution bc he stated a principle enshrined in uniform code of military justice. If we become numb to that we lose sight of how extraordinary our obligations are."

In den letzten Monaten habe ich viele sächsische Schulen angeschrieben und eine Lesung aus Victor Klemperers Tagebuch angeboten: niedrigschwellig, lebendig, informativ, mit viel Raum für Fragen zu Holocaust und Antisemitismus. Keine einzige Oberschule hat geantwortet. #BlueLZ
👇🏼Dazu passt: Artikel Seite 1 @saechsische.de heute: "Neuer Höchststand: Sachsens Schulen melden mehr rechtsextreme Vorfälle."
➡️"Meldepflichtig sind besondere Vorkommnisse, die den üblichen Schul- bzw. Dienstbetrieb in erheblichem Maße (...) beeinträchtigen."

I fought in Afghanistan as a Marine.

Danes were in Helmand before Marines were.

43 Danes gave the last full measure of devotion because the U.S. asked and we had been attacked.

I’m ashamed this man is the commander in chief. This isn’t how you treat friends who bled with you.
Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."

I'm sure many have heard this already but I've been chuckling away at the idea of Trump telling a room full of mostly first language German speakers that they'd all be speaking German now if it wasn't for the U.S.
